Denim Fabric for Jackets

Denim Fabric for Jackets

Trucker jackets, chore coats and overshirts: which denim weights and constructions suit each.

46 matching fabrics in stock, 40,600+ yards available today.

Weight by jacket type

A trucker jacket sits comfortably at 11–13oz — enough body to hold the yoke and pleats without becoming a coat. Chore coats and workwear jackets go heavier, 13oz and up. Overshirts go the other way, 6–9oz, where the fabric needs to drape rather than stand.

Rigid over stretch

Most jacket programmes are rigid. Jackets rely on structure at the shoulder and chest, and elastane works against that. Where stretch is used it is usually 1% for comfort rather than fit.
